First of all, my parents are coming into town this weekend.  This is a great relief to me because we'll be moving from the prepare-the-house-until-it-surpases-all-expectations mode to relax-and-have-a-beer-with-my-old-man mode.  Hooray!

Secondly, al-Zarqawi is dead.  Hey, al, are you enjoying your 72 virgins in paradise?  ...  What's that you say?  Oh my.  Well, my fair readers, you'll hear it here first.  Turns out there is a misinterpretation of the Quran.  A Muslim martyr's reward is actually having one's virginity removed by 72 pineapples.  Huh.  That's way different.

I wonder what the pineapples did to deserve such a punishment.

Thirdly, do you remember the post in which I described the mysterious blue biked that has been chained to a light post outside my office for weeks?  Yesterday it was gone.  All that remained was a sad blue bike lock laying severed and useless on the sidewalk.  But that's not the best part.  The best part is that a coworker of mine found DISEMBODIED CRAB CLAWS strewn about the area.  Holy macaroni!  I'll try and post some pictures soon.  The company I work for has a few blogs, and the sotry might make it to there eventually also, so I'll keep you posted.

Sadly, the site I've been using to post many of the videos here has disappeared and now points to its parent site.  This is not a site I be happy about linking to, so I've disabled the links to most videos on the posts.  Sorry!  I'll keep an eye out for a replacement site so that I can continue to bring you wheely-ing vehicles that have no business doing wheelies and strange women trying to bite police officers.  Excellent.

Until that day, however, you'll just have to live with whatever funny pictures I can dig up.

I hope this helps you make it through your day.
